So, what is a SassyPack?

Great question!

A SassyPack is a quilt kit ~ with a kick! All of our SassyPacks feature bold, contemporary fabrics. The patterns we select are generally appropriate for beginner and novice quilters, but experienced quilters may also enjoy the simple elegance of our projects.

Many of our SassyPacks are designed to make quilting a breeze ~ so we may add in backing fabric, hard-to-find batting or notions, or a little note from us full of tips for completing the kit!

This beautiful holiday wall hanging requires glue baste-it and invisible thread ~ two products that can be a little tricky to find. So, we include them in your SassyPack, along with backing fabric and batting. Everything you need to complete the project, as soon as it arrives in the mail!

Plus, if you want to add a little sparkle to the stars and snow, we sell the crystals on Sassypacks.com.

As SassyPacks.com grows, we will add more and more customization options ~ allowing you to opt to add backing fabric or other key kit components, multiple fabric options for each SassyPack and more. Our goal is to make quilting fun and simple!

A final word about SassyPacks ~ as you will come to learn, there is a raging debate in SassyPacks about hand quilting vs. machine quilting. :) Many of our SassyPacks are suitable for either method. As a beginner quilter myself, I find hand quilting to be easy and forgiving. For that reason, we make an effort to select patterns for our SassyPacks that are appropriate for hand quilting.

Welcome to SassyBlog!

Believe us when we say -- we've been there.

Join our discussion on the joys of quilting, the not-so-fun moments... and maybe a little mother-daughter drama! We will preview new products from SassyPacks.com, share our tips and tricks for beginning and intermediate quilters, and do our best to make quilting a simple but rewarding hobby.

Our goal is to help you love quilting as much as we do....even when you are ripping out that #!%$* seam for the 10th time. We've been there. We've made those mistakes. We've tossed piles of fabric in the corner and sworn off the entire industry. But the lure of beautiful fabrics always brings us back -- and we know you will feel the same way.
